Your Tortuga Guide

Dive Sites Less Travelled

Zeppelin Dive & Sail has been operating sailing and diving liveaboard vacations on Roatan since 2013. The unique experience we provide on Zeppelin is small groups with a balance of sailing and diving Roatan’s coastline and nearby islands, including Cayos Cochinos and Guanaja. Enjoy Caribbean sailing, exquisite diving adventures, pristine snorkeling, and island explorations. Add in relaxing, delicious foods and chilled beverages, and you will delight in living aboard our custom 47 foot sailboat with a maximum of 4 guests.

On our Dive & Sail charters we travel to Guanaja, Cayos Cochinos, and return to Roatan diving in each destination. Every area has different topography and distinct ecosystems and we take our guests to places that are seen by very few visitors. We often don't see any other divers near us during the entire week in Port Royal, Cayos Cochinos and Guanaja, these are our favorite destinations and have spectacular diving on pristine reefs.

Family Liveaboard Dive Vacation

Are you ready for some boat lingo... did you know boats are called ‘she’? Zeppelin is 47 feet overall with 15 feet of beam (width), center cockpit (area that you steer from and has seating) and a flush deck forward (flat open area). The combination of the wide beam and center cockpit design provides a large, comfortable living space and the flush deck makes for a terrific area for lounging, yoga and viewing ocean life. The design also gives us three sleeping cabins, two heads (bathrooms) both with showers, a large galley (kitchen) and spacious main saloon (living/dining room). The cockpit is partially enclosed by a fixed windshield with side glass panels and the hard top can be enclosed by canvas and clear panels. This provides protection from the sun, wind, rain and spray making her comfortable in all sea conditions.

Our launch is Scuba Libre, a 21 foot dive and touring boat. All seats facing forward with cushions, cut out holders for dive tanks and cubbies for gear, full bimini for shade and a ladder located on the side for easy boarding. Read more here..
